If you do, when you go to the DMV, make sure you bring your driver&#8217;s license (and your marriage license, if you changed your name when you got married) because your previous driver&#8217;s license is no longer good enough proof of your identity.<br \/>\n<strong>&#8211;4&#8211;<\/strong><br \/>\nAnd don&#8217;t forget your cell phone, so that when your child gets sick at school you&#8217;ll find out about it right away and not when you return home to get your driver&#8217;s license and your marriage license and find the parent you listed as your emergency contact using a Band-Aid and a used envelope to leave a note on your front door.<br \/>\n<strong>&#8211;5&#8211;<\/strong><br \/>\nNow that we&#8217;re back in a house with a yard, the rhubarb chronicles will begin again!  Remember <a href=\"http:\/\/moss-place.stblogs.org\/archives\/2004\/03\/garden-journal.html\">those four plants I was growing back in the PGMP?<\/a>  They came with us when we moved.  One went to my pal Iris and two lived on my back deck in whiskey-barrel planters, where one died and the other two hung on but failed to thrive.<br \/>\nBut now I&#8217;ve got a nice spot of ground for them, and they&#8217;re going in this weekend!  Pie for sure next year!<br \/>\n<strong>&#8211;6&#8211;<\/strong><br \/>\nI made a strawberry rhubarb pie last week.<br \/>\nOh.
